Onenote

www.virginiaglatzer.wikispaces.com
on ipad, the three dots on the bottom show all of the pages.
great app for an iPad
Using Windows 8, you can use a stylus to write....cool!!!
SkyDrive:cloud platform
Since she uses Onenote, she does not use Word
Easy to use screen shot
Must use it with Skydrive
This comes with Office 10. and 13...you might be able to upgrade in Office 7 in your license agreement.
Can print from Onenote.....
Students would need to have the skydrive account if you want a history of their sharing
It records and also shows video so you could share a science experiment by video taping it and you can see it.

anology:
office 365 to skydrive as google docs is to google apps

you can get onenote, word in skydrive

Difference between office 13 and office 365

10 Tips and Trips for engaged Learners

gotchatips.wikispaces.org

this is a presentation wiki about all of the tips.
Gates Foundation found out that the reason students drop out is because they are bored.

60% of high school kids do not feel engaged
Learning is not a spectator sport and they must be engaged.

engaged learning: purposeful, students actively learning using a device, sharing their knowldege with each other, helping each other learn, wanting to know more so the teacher needs to find out the answers possibly, hands on , relevant , challenging, ownership and way to share,

Bloom's taxonomy has creating at the TOP!

Good questions on the wiki
Wonderopolis: great question of the day.....has video, can post questions, does have an archive

try the Intel Ranking Tool
tool can work with post it notes

4 tools: free,
students would brainstorm inventions
of these 10, rank by way of impact
tool itself sees how the rankings compare with other people

Engaged when can try tasks without fear of embarrassment

want them to feel safe so use response devices like a clicker,
Turning Point is a clicker
free is Poll Everywhere and you see the chart build in ...40 for free

Rolestorming = roleplaying and brainstorming

students take on roles and are more risk taking if they are doing it from a role
- Give them a scenario: You work for a advertising agency and the psea has hired your firm to create pubblic relations materials
- Create an ad about education on a billboard
  - create it online

Real world resources

http://worldometers.info

More engaged when you have an audience

have the kids comment on each others blog
use Edmodo for sharing student work

Students are visual learners

power of images 75% imporovement in learning
Marzano says images work!
images can take us places where we can not get there
great tools for conversation

Visual Thinking strategy

give them a picture:
- what is going on in this picture?
- what do you see that makes you say that?
- what else do you see?

More engaged when their work results in a creation of a product

More engaged in topics which they have a choice

like using a website, graphic, or choice in topics
give 3 choices for homework
give 3 topics for extended learning
give choices in format like written, presentation, multimedia

Variety of activities

changing the way you do things
every 6 mins. of change

Movieclips are free and can be put into powerpoint

IBook

local control to write your own book
less is more so allows us to use variety of resources
Process 1
- establish an outline
- chapter topics
Process 2
- distribute duties for topics
Process 3
- used Google Drive(Google docs) for storage of all writings
- reading specialist proofread all writings to determine reading level
- wrote text first before images
Process 4
- used images ...national parks, national atlas, national archive...wrote letter about using graphics and got written approval
- library of congress...looked for images with no known rights advisory
- also took pictures themselves because they own them
Process 5
- insert text and images into iBook Author
Process 6
- distribute ibooks to students using iTunesU course manager(50 students per class)...this is a website.
- can see when student logs into book
- you can edit iBook and then push out updated version

If they do not have an Apple device, can download pdf device without the interactive stuff
full blown iBook is only on iPad
advantages
- easy to navigate
- adaptible for students with disabilitites.
- it will read the iBook
- can make it larger for students
- can change language
- meant to be read in landscape
- can define words, highlight stuff, and their own notes and can make flashcards
- creator of iBooks can create their own definitions
was this time consuming.....yes, and not done, but is ongoing
make sure it is aligned with standards
can put little checks at the end of each chapter

disadvantages
- need headphones if students want to hear the book read
- more appropriate if students have ipad at home
- each class has set of iPads so students can't take home if they don't own an iPad
- do have a pdf on their class website.....could put it on a wiki

teacher positives
book is not so thick...could link out to the web on the iBook

teacher negatives
student can not do homework at home if they don't have an ipad or computer

if student has never used an ipad, it can cause a problem
if a teacher makes changes, must send it to whereever it is published
copyright worries
